Tampa Bay Buccaneers agreed to a new deal with a key member of the coaching staff after the Jacksonville Jaguars expressed interest in hiring him. The news is important for quarterback Baker Mayfield in the 2025 NFL season.

Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen originally withdrew from consideration Wednesday. General Manager Trent Baalke was later fired the same day.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen is back in the running for the Jaguars' coaching job, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Thursday afternoon.

Among active head coaches, Giants head coach Brian Daboll's .353 win percentage (18 wins in 51 career games) is tied for the league's third-worst, ahead of 2024 first-year coaches Dave Canales (Panthers) and Brian Callahan (Titans).

This will mark Coen's first stint as an NFL head coach, following just two total seasons as an NFL offensive coordinator.

The Jaguars capped one of the wildest two days in franchise history, agreeing to make Liam Coen their next head coach, hopeful that the 39-year-old can bring the franchise out of its perpetual swoon and maximize the potential of quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
